I think you just gave me permission to get more orchids. Your poll went by 20s until you got to 100. I have about 130, so I am going to have to get some more to get to the next level. (Any excuse for another orchid!!!)

I have more than 300 orchids, maybe up to 350, including species and crosses. All of them are grown outdoors in my yard. Among my collection, there are more than 100 cattleya crosses.

I'm somewhere around 60.And I'm o.k. with that...for now. I have pulled up my big girl panties and realized that I have to make more room first before getting anymore.And I don't want to drive my husband crazy, or make the orchids a chore. ginnibug

Default My Collection



I would like to say Hi, to everyone, as I am a new member. I am looking for some swap meet, or orchid club to join.
I Just moved to CT, from Brooklyn, NY.
All my orchids survived the move....lol, and THEY ARE THRIVING!!!!

(I love J & L, btw.)

I would love to buy Schoenorchis, If anybody has.

That would put our collection way over x 3!!!

I am looking for a pink or bright yellow Cymbidium... I have been checking Trader Joes, they only have Brown at a fair price. I would take someones cutting or Divison at a fair price, Its for my Mom in law's Birthday on Sunday.

Hope to offer some of my great orchids at a swap!!!!

Be well E V E R Y O N E !!!

Lisa

Im down to around 75 or 80 some odd orchids. Yes down to 75 or 80 from about 100 over the summer..heat brought death to orchids in texas outdoors this past year.

Trimming them down even more bec I have decided that what actually grows for me and what I like are 2 different things many times.

I only have 3 right now , but I'm trying to get at least 8 more in the next two weeks. So far the shopping list doesn't have anything specific, but I want 3 paphs, 2 more oncidium types, and a variety of phals to get the collection going. After that, I will only reward myself with a new plant when I get something in the collection to rebloom. That's the plan at least.....
